Bryant J. Stanton

Waco artist Bryant J. Stanton got his start in stained glass in the late 1970s making suncatchers. After a year, he started his own company at the age of 21 called Stanton Glass Studio. Bryant’s first commercial job came from restoring stained glass windows from a church that was damaged by a fire. Stanton’s studio has grown to become nationally recognized with works in homes, churches and businesses across Texas and the United States. Stanton has much more experience than just glass, and specializes in working with wood and metal, too. You can see several examples of his work in famous buildings. Here in Waco, you may have noticed the “Green Door” on the 8th block of Austin Avenue, and the DNA double helix sculpture in the science building at McLennan Community College.
